I'm trying to disable 169.254.xx routes from being added to the route table on a pi4 (Raspbian 10 Buster). All I have read so far points to dhcp configuring link local address, APIPA, zeroconf.

Added noipv4ll and set eth0 to static ip in dhcpcd.conf with no joy.

enter image description here

pi@raspberrypi:/etc/dhcp $ cat /etc/dhcpcd.conf # A sample configuration for dhcpcd. # See dhcpcd.conf(5) for details. # Allow users of this group to interact with dhcpcd via the control socket. #controlgroup wheel # Inform the DHCP server of our hostname for DDNS. hostname # Use the hardware address of the interface for the Client ID. clientid # or # Use the same DUID + IAID as set in DHCPv6 for DHCPv4 ClientID as per RFC4361. # Some non-RFC compliant DHCP servers do not reply with this set. # In this case, comment out duid and enable clientid above. #duid # Persist interface configuration when dhcpcd exits. persistent # Rapid commit support. # Safe to enable by default because it requires the equivalent option set # on the server to actually work. option rapid_commit # A list of options to request from the DHCP server. option domain_name_servers, domain_name, domain_search, host_name option classless_static_routes # Respect the network MTU.

  • DHCP doesn't configure 169.254.0.0 addresses - only if a a device fails to make contact with a DHCP server can it (optionally) allocate a 169.254.x.x address. Commented Jun 20, 2021 at 0:46

  • I don't use dhcp - I just removed the daemon "apt purge avahi-daemon". The client software has to many dependencies so I didn't remove them. Commented Jun 20, 2021 at 20:21

I added this to the bottom of the dhcpcd.conf file and 169.254.x.x route is not added.
